Today's Jeopardy! contestants:

Ethan Amaker, an attorney originally from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Molly Gendell, an editor from Brooklyn, New York
Will Goree, a teacher from Austin, Texas

Will enters today's game as a 1-day champion with winnings of $28,600.

Andy's Pregame Thoughts:

Yesterday saw Austin's Will Goree take a decisive runaway victory, picking up over $15,000 from a pair of Daily Doubles in the Double Jeopardy Round—but made the decision not to risk any money in Final Jeopardy. Today, in a game whose composition was spoiled by George Pennacchio's "behind the scenes" report that aired on some ABC stations yesterday, Will takes on Brooklyn's Molly Gendell and Philadelphia's Ethan Amaker.

Meanwhile, in honor of Veterans Day, there will be a category in today's game with Ken on location in South Korea asking clues about military bases there (taped when the show went on a USO tour in that area).

More Information About Final Jeopardy!:

(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2026 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)

Due to the fact that bats help to pollinate the sugarcane that Bacardi's rum is made from, the world-famous rum brand Bacardi contains a bat in its logo. The colony of fruit bats originally spotted in the 1860s at its Cuban distillery inspired the logo, while Casa Bacardi in Cataño contains botanical gardens that also attract the bats.

If one can get from "nocturnal pollinator" to "bat" to "Bacardi", this becomes a relatively straightforward Final. That said, you do need to focus on "nocturnal"; otherwise, you might end up flipping a coin between Patrón and Don Julio.
